http://nagoya.apache.org/bugzilla/show_bug.cgi?id=19077 Telnet task doesn't support failure Summary: Telnet task doesn't support failure Product: Ant Version: 1.6Alpha (nightly) Platform: Other OS/Version: Other Status: NEW Severity: Enhancement Priority: Other Component: Optional Tasks AssignedTo: [EMAIL PROTECTED] ReportedBy: [EMAIL PROTECTED] The Ant telnet task doesn't support failing early if something goes wrong. What I wanted to do was run a script on a remote server, which finishes with "ok" if everything worked and "failed" if not. The remote script could take some time, which is why waiting for "ok" with a timeout wasn't quite good enough. I've added code to TelnetTask which allows a new "failon" attribute for <read> elements. If the text in the attribute is read from the connection, the task fails. I use this to stop a build if deployment to a remote container fails. I'll attach the patch (cvs -q diff -u) after creating the bug.
